I like Keith Emerson but sometimes he's just way too much that I can't really stand him, my faves on this list are Wakeman and BanksWink

not truly prog but I have to mention that Ron 'Pigpen' McKernan is another favorite of mine. Great keyboard player as well as harmonica and just a fantastic singer with great stage presence
